Physics of swimming and its fitness cost determine strategies of bacterial investment in flagellar motility

Abstract Microorganisms must distribute their limited resources among different physiological functions, including those that do not directly contribute to growth. In this study, we investigate the allocation of resources to flagellar swimming, the most prominent and biosynthetically costly of such...
